[viitorcloudvc]

A variable $from_name has default WordPress name as sender on line 316 in file name pluggable.php exist in wp-include folder.

Where there is a line replacement with site name of WordPress website. The result will show in email with Site title of website in email of sender name.

Hello @viitorcloudvc and welcome to WordPress Trac,

Thanks for the ticket, I'm moving it to the Mail component.

By the way, there is already a hook to filter the From Name parameter for all WP mails: ​https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/wp_mail_from_name/

Also, looks like there is an extra space that should be removed in the patch provided :-)

Hello @audrasjb,

Thank you.

Thank you again for suggestion. I am aware about hook but it would be great to have default inbuilt function for sender name. For this purpose I am requesting to add in core functionality.

As @audrasjb said there is already filter available to change default $from_name . please remove an extra space from 45562.patch.patch patch.

@viitorcloudvc Welcome to trac!

Looks like you have removed extra space before variable, but due to WPCS, you need to fix below errors,

Expected 1 space after opening bracket;
Expected 1 space before closing bracket;

This is quite tricky. For example, what happens with multisite?
For example, on creation of a new user, it will send an email
By using get_bloginfo( 'name' ); it will take the main blog, but maybe you would rather not disclose the main blog name when doing such.
The right way to proceed here is programmatically with wp_mail_from_name as @audrasjb and @mukesh27 have suggested.
There are already some proposals regarding the Senders mail (and transitively, sender's name), like #60420. For this reason, I'm going to be closing this as a duplicate to focus effort for a resolution just in one ticket.
